Police warning: if you bought a fridge from skull-face man it might be stolen

“IT’S the oddest thing I’ve ever seen in 20-plus years of law enforcement. I’ve seen horns on foreheads and stars on necks, but I’ve never seen a skull on a face. I can’t explain it. It’s just odd.”

So says Capt. Mike Dixon of the Madison County Sheriff’s Department of Adam G. Roberts, 24, of Godfrey, Illinois. Roberts has been charged with burglary. Police warn that if you bought items from him – such as a compact refrigerator, paintings, an antique chest of drawers, an oval mirror and a sewing machine – they might well be stolen.

You really cannot trust a book by its cover. (It’s the ones in the sharp suits with greased hair you want to watch out for.)
